@Hey You
At least you made the effort.
"...everything is OK since we made so many friends."
Yeah, heaps and heaps.
On Patrick.net even the conservatives generally agree that this war was a disaster...

It has been eight years now (as March 20), since the Iraq War began. What are the results now that some time has passed? Was it worth the loss of lives (not to mention a good bit of money with many estimates of $1,000,000,000,000 or more)? Who benefitted and who is worse off? Consider too, the deficit the US has now and how the money might have been otherwise spent. All views are welcome--especially with sources or people who have seen Iraq firsthand.
